You are sending a "getCookies" message from the popup to all active tabs.

But in content.js you are expecting a "setCookies" message and not a "getCookies" message, so nothing will happen.

After you fix that first problem, you also have to fix the "all active tabs" thing, which is probably not what you wanted.

Also,  you are not showing the content of the "getCookie" function. Who knows what's happening inside of that.

async function getCookie(domain, name){

    console.log("loading cookie for: " + domain);

    return new Promise((resolve, reject)=>{

        chrome.cookies.get({"url": domain, "name": name}, function(cookie) {

            resolve(cookie.value);

        });

    });

}
